It's beginning to look a LOT like Christmas!

This morning it was time to pack up and head back across the border. Our time in Canada was sooo awesome! I am beyond blessed to have been able to celebrate Christmas in Canada with most of my family (minus Tim and Steph and crew).

It snowed overnight, much to the kid's delight! Not so much Philip's delight when it was time to pack up the van... =)

Since we weren't sure how much snow there would be in Michigan, we had Rebekah take a quick picture for us before we left London

Our kids are not good at wearing winter coats

We stopped in to see Nathan and Laura and Ciara before leaving town.

Love these two!

Can't post pictures of Ciara yet, but she is a doll and she and the kids were so sweet together! =)

Laura and I

Then it was off to Uncle Dennis and Aunt Mary's house in St Clair Shores for a late lunch...

Moriah got these matching outfits for her and her doll from Keenan

So cute!

Dan and Philip's cousins, Gary and his wife, Tammy were also there, so it was a really special time!

Aunt Mary and Uncle Dennis

Papa and Riah

So sweet

What a load!

Sweet smile on Caleb

Papa and three of his grandkids

Three generations of Michiganders =)

All of us

The kids love their gift from Aunt Mary and Uncle Dennis!

Now we're settled at the other Aunt Mary's house. We're actually in one place for three nights in a row - wow!

She set up a small tree and hung miniature stockings for all of us in the basement - so fun!

Our little family
